Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut fresh green corn from the cob.

  2. Pack the corn in glass fruit jars until the milk settles on top.

  3. Screw on the tops and wrap each jar in a cloth or place fine hay between them to prevent touching.

  4. Place the jars in a wash boiler and cover with cold water.

  5. Boil for three hours.

  6. Let the jars stand in the water to cool.

  7. Screw the covers down tight when done boiling.
